For comparison here is the crude stick-figure post-1965 sign for a school, still in use, which its designer, Margaret Calvert,intended to be more ‘inclusive’ and ‘ more comprehensive’ . Note also that in this version the girl leads the boy. Influences are all around us. https://t.co/wqCFgwINCh — PolitiTweet.org

This symbol for my new book on the abolition of grammar schools is based on the pre-1965 Highway Code sign for a school. Amended, it means ‘Traditional education banned - except for the children of the rich and powerful’. https://t.co/V3eQ5Irn1c — PolitiTweet.org

'It looked very grammar school. I wanted it to look more inclusive'. Margaret Calvert on the new Highway Code sign for a school, which she drew, and which was introduced in 1965, as the smashing-up of grammar schools began. https://t.co/XcsusGAdKh — PolitiTweet.org
